    700r from 89 Vandura questions

    I'm reviving this old thread because I want to verify if 700r4 and 4L60 are simply different names for the same transmission? Why did these model numbers change?

    700r from 89 Vandura questions

    This is very helpful. Thank you. Anyone have any experience putting a 700r4 in place of a 4L60E? Anyone ever adapt that harness or program the PCM to control the 700r4's soleniod? I could also narrow my search to a 1992 Suburban, which is an OBS, or an extended 3/4 van. But those use a 4L80...

    700r from 89 Vandura questions

    Basically I just have a rusted out 1989 van and I'm thinking of saving the engine and 700r/4L60 for a 3/4 extended van or 1995 and earlier Tahoe/Yukon/Suburban. So it sounds like the transmission should work, with some possible modifications? With the 350 TBI, I think I'm limited to these...

    I have a rusty 1989 Vandura with a good 350 and 700r and I'm wondering what it will swap into without too much difficulty. In addition to the differences mentioned in the other thread, I've heard that the van transmissions have a longer bellhousing. Is this correct? Otherwise, would it be a...

    Worth saving an L05 TBI and 700r4

    L31 being the 305? What are some of the problem areas with that swap? Also is my transmission also called a 4L60? My understanding was that the model name is 700r4. So would you think this motor could go pretty much directly into a L05 OBS?

    Worth saving an L05 TBI and 700r4

    Would my L05 be a mostly direct swap into a 1998 Silverado 1500 4x4 with a 305? That's one application I'm thinking of. Isn't the bellhousing for the 700r4 in the g20 van platforms a little longer? I read that in a Chevy/GM van forum.

    Worth saving an L05 TBI and 700r4

    I have an old 1989 van that is just getting too rusty. But the engine and transmission have always been very reliable. Is it worth pulling this motor to put in on OBS/Gen3 truck or even an old European car? How easily would this motor mate up with a manual transmission? I'm basically wondering...
